Raising the Standard, Seed Labels

As F2F increases their seed portfolio with hybrids and maturity on different seeds I think F2F as they seem to do should raise the bar on seed labels, specifically cold sat and putting it on the label, I know seed companies do not have to put that on the label and most people if they do cold sat test, farm it out to a 3rd party. Whether it’s to keep it unbiased or not is another story. Everyone knows farmers push maturities and with that may come earlier planting dates but for most it’s all dependent on Mother Nature or ground temp. By no means am I trying to point out that I don’t trust their seed because I have some and it’s some of my best looking corn and by far had the best emergence on this cold North Dakota spring. I’m just hoping F2F and FBN can keep raising the bar and ruffling feathers.
